Shaun Come Up To See Old Papa G

PAPA G · 01-18-2005, 07:17 PM

he flew up today and visitied for about an hour. thats all the time he could spare. but he is a most enjoyable fellow, and wiser than his years would tell.

coffee and b/s up on "da farm" if he comes to an airport near you, do go hook up with him. a real gentleman, did a little show and tell. he gotta cool RIA too.

hope the next time Shaun we have more time. :nod: :right:

Yes, I've invited him to the downtown K.C. airport, too. Hope we get to meet eyeball to eyeball. :right: :jet:

It was a very enjoyable trip and guys I have to say Papa G is one good guy. I really do appreciate the hospitality and getting to connect names with the faces of my fellow members here. I have my eye on a plane and may buy one down the road when everything at the office settles down then you may see me at your local airport.

Toledo Express:http://www.airnav.com/airport/TOL

*Toledo Express is actually in Swanton...1 mile awy from the Gun dealer I go too, and farther to the North is another gundealer...farther to the west is a funky little pawnshop that gets some cool guns in once in awhile....

PAPA G · 01-19-2005, 01:11 PM

heck Shaun could put pontoons on the plane and land at Lake Toledo, wouldn't that be special aaa Joe???

NRAJOE · 01-19-2005, 01:20 PM

He'd only be 50 yards from my door!

Shaun · 01-19-2005, 02:24 PM

I guess I would have to get the float plane training then --anyone have the float plane for me to train with. Preferably a Dehavilland Beaver

Joe eventually my goal will be at some point to fly in and meet most of the main crew of G&G. I did inquire about your area and was told by several pilots I need to work heavy on dealing with cross winds first before I try anything near the lakes. Many of the pilots referenced JFK jr if I were to try it right away.

NRAJOE · 01-19-2005, 02:37 PM

Wow! Didn't know that...Toledo Express is a good 25-30 miles from the Lake...winds weird even THAT far away?

Shaun · 01-19-2005, 02:45 PM

I will check with the aviation weather services. These are for TOL

Stop in any ol time here Shaun. Give me a shout and I can set you up with a place to stay if you want to visit DC.

toolman · 01-21-2005, 12:23 AM

Yep, Shaun's a good guy! BTW, How's them dies workin' Shaun? I'd come visit some of you other guys, but I've got a habit of speaking my mind and pizzin' people off!

Shaun · 01-21-2005, 08:16 AM

Die's are working well I have been running rounds out for Alan about once a week at a 100 a shot. I figure when Alan gets home from Iraq he will be looking at 2000 custom rounds waiting for him.

How have you been toolman?

toolman · 01-21-2005, 12:10 PM

Not bad Bro, just runnin' my butt off as usual!

Shaun · 01-21-2005, 12:14 PM
